Rock Mass Classification Prediction Model Based on an Improved Caterpillar Fungus Optimization Algorithm: A Case Study of TBM Water Conveyance Tunnel in Shiyan
Accurate identification of the tunnel-surrounding rock conditions is crucial for TBM excavation to prevent disasters such as excessive deformation and TBM jamming, which could significantly affect the project schedule. To mitigate premature convergence and insufficient local refinement of the caterpillar fungus optimiz...
